| There
is so much going on for a better world all around us that the mainstream media
never shares. Throughout history, there have been many social movements for change
... for democracy, for the abolition of slavery, women's rights, for peace, for
the environment ... Many advancements have been made, but each of these causes
is just part of larger wish for a more peaceful, just and sustainable world.
These diverse movements for thousands of different causes are beginning to converge
and a more holistic movement --what UNESCO has described as a 'global movement
for a culture of peace' -- is beginning to emerge. The Culture of Peace Movement
is helping to unite the strengths of existing organizations and individuals
so that creating a culture of peace really is now possible. How
do you join the global movement for a culture of peace?
The Culture of Peace Movement is not an organization. All you have to do is decide
to make 'building a culture of peace' your goal. Though sometimes it may seem
to be an impossible dream, you will never be alone in this wish -- you are connected
to a vast, global Culture of Peace Community.
Start a Peace Clubs chapter in your community and help connect your community
to the global movement for a culture of peace. This
is the time and we are the ones we've been waiting for ... We
want peace on earth and together we can create a culture of peace! ISSUE
